Dianne and I went to Aransas NWR and the Southwest in Spring 2025. Although the weather for photographing Whooping Cranes was not ideal (very overcast and foggy), I was able to get some decent photos of these magnificent birds, and we both had a lot of fun doing it.
The Southwest was amazing, and we had fantastic weather for that whole part of the trip.
